Antiviral Medication

Antiviral MedicationShould provide antiviral drugs to my child?

My 10 year old suspected swine flu, is it better to let the body fight against the flu, or should I give him the drug Tamiflu.
It seems you just answer a few questions online to get the anti viral medication without talking to a doctor.

Tamiflu is only effective if taken within the first 48 hours of onset of symptoms, so if it was longer than that while Tamiflu is useless.

If it's not too late, then yes, you can try to Tamiflu, should reduce the amount of time she is sick (it will not heal if I'm afraid). Whether or not it is better to go out, I can not say.

I hope she gets better soon.
